5.2 Connecting to Pool Plumbing
- Verify Pipe Size: Before installation, confirm your pool's plumbing pipe size matches the chlorinator's interfaces.
- Connect the Chlorinator: Integrate the chlorinator system into your pool's existing plumbing. Refer to the diagrams below for typical configurations.
- Pipe Cutting (if necessary): If you need to cut existing D50mm PVC pipe, the required length of the cut must be 230 mm.
- Additional Pipe (Type A): When using a Type A pipe, add a 50cm pipe (not supplied) to the filter outlet. Consider installing a valve after the chlorinator for easier maintenance.

6.2 Digital Panel Indicators and Alerts
The chlorinator's digital panel provides important status information and alerts. Familiarize yourself with these indicators:
- F6: High Salt (>5000ppm): Indicates excessively high salt levels. To resolve, add fresh water to the pool or hold the Salt Button for 3 seconds to reset.
- F2: Low Flow (<2m³/h): Indicates insufficient water flow through the chlorinator. Check your pool's circulation system for blockages or pump issues.
- F5: Low Salt (<2500ppm): Indicates low salt levels. Add salt to the pool and hold the Salt Button for 3 seconds to reset the alert.
